[PATCH v3 07/21] nvme: Introduce FENCING and FENCED controller states

[Mohamed Khalfella]

FENCING is a new controller state that a LIVE controller enter when an
error is encountered. While in FENCING state,inflight IOs that timeout
are not canceled because they should be held until either CCR succeeds
or time-based recovery completes. While the queues remain alive requests
are not allowed to be sent in this state and the controller cannot be
reset or deleted. This is intentional because resetting or deleting the
controller results in canceling inflight IOs.

FENCED is a short-term state the controller enters before it is reset.
It exists only to prevent manual resets from happening while controller
is in FENCING state.
